ASIANCE: What do you hope to accomplish in the United States?

Wonder Girls: We would like to work with other talented artists besides Koreans in the US As artists its our hope to spread our music to more audience.

ASIANCE: Anyone you would like work with? An American celebrity?

Wonder Girls: Jay-Z, he's a great producer.

ASIANCE: Where is your favorite place to perform?

Wonder Girls: My favorite place to perform is Orange County, California. We had so much fun last time we performed there, and the crowd was fabulous.

ASIANCE: Is there an American song that you would just love to cover?

Wonder Girls: Diana Ross and the Supremes, "Baby Love".

ASIANCE: What Asian celebrities or stars do you admire?

Wonder Girls: We admire JY Park because of his passion for music.

ASIANCE: What is the song Nobody about?

Wonder Girls: "Nobody" is about a woman who still loves her man, but he's trying to push her away because he thinks he's not good enough for her. The official release of "Nobody" will be on May 5, 2009.

ASIANCE: Your video was on Perez Hilton. What do you think about that?

Wonder Girls: Yes, we were excited because he showed interest in many Asian artists. We were thankful that he liked our video and he's such a comedic guy.

ASIANCE: What plans do you have for taking over the United States? Is their a tour in the works? Give us the dates.

Wonder Girls: We hope to influence our American audience with our songs and performances. And maybe become inspirational to the youth of America. No, there isn't a tour in the works yet, but we may have something similar developing soon. No tour dates have been confirmed.

As of now, we're preparing for their English debut release of their latest single in Asia, "Nobody."

Well by Korean pop success standards...yes they will, they all will flop.
Now remove from that high high bar and think American stardards.... people packed at meet and greets, or small shows, downloading or buying hard copies. Good and i say very good success. Unless they do a school tour or anything to make "WONDERGIRLS" pop, that's it. We don't have promo here (wishing we did). JYP knows/knew this everyone does and they still march forward. Because the west is like a mirage of smiley faces and when you get here reality quickly set's in [when do we go home].
And really the whole industry is a flop with talent and longevity for they don't care about 2morrow only today and if you are around 2morrow i'm sure they can find something for you to do.
We can't count on radio for it's all about who knows who and in their pocket statewide..We surely can't cound on MTV and all of her sister stations they have failed continuously failed us.

I welcome all, anyone who doesn't have mag covers and red carpits and it lists on the brain. These are good things i know, but it's so dirty here. America we will give everyone their 15mins, make sure you don't run over 15 coz we will tear you down the minute after! Media gotta love them.
All of that was said in one breathe..IMO IJS.
